VINYL is VG+
Super clean vinyl has no scratches or physical scuffs. NM but for 100% inaudible light storage marks (faint spots on top of the grooves) only; visible in hard bright light; you can see it but you can't hear it. LP plays EX+ to NM throughout. Labels are pristine all 4 sides.

*'storage marks' are not mold, spores, moisture marks, residue or any other kind of contaminant. Merely lightly visible impression on top of vinyl grooves only, from decades of being pressed against inner sleeve in shelved collection.

COVER is VG+
Thick, Gatefold cover with bound-in 8 page Booklet is clean inside and out with very minor shelf and edge wear. No soil, writing or other marks. Bound-in booklet shows some minor rippling at center, but no other issues. Seams and flat, smooth spine are completely intact with no splits.

*Please excuse light reflection in 1st Photo.

Every Recording issued by Gus Cannon, before, with and after Cannon's Jug Stompers
featuring Blind Blake, Noah Lewis and 'Banjo Joe'.

Gus Cannon was the best known of all the jugband musicians and a seminal figure on the Memphis blues scene. His recollections have also provided us with much of our knowledge of the earliest days of the blues in the Mississippi Delta. Cannon led his Jug Stompers on banjo and jug in a historic series of dates for the Victor label in 1928-1930. The ensemble usually included a second banjoist or guitarist, one of whom often doubled on kazoo, and the legendary Noah Lewis on harmonica. The jug-band style enjoyed a revival during the folk boom of the '50s and '60s, resulting in an ultra-rare Gus Cannon album on Stax, of all labels, after his "Walk Right In" became the nation's best-selling record for the Rooftop Singers in 1963. Cannon's Victor output was also a favorite source of early blues material for the Grateful Dead (Viola Lee Blues, New Minglewood Blues, Big Railroad Blues, etc.).
